Welcome to the web home of the Parish Church of St John the Baptist at Adel in north Leeds.
We are a friendly Anglican Church with parishioners of all ages attending a variety of formats of services, including very traditional services, and more contemporary formats, where we put a lot of time and effort into running a junior church.

There is an active social side to the Parish, with regular Coffee mornings, Barbecues in the summer, walks, including Beating the Bounds (where the Parish Boundary is walked), quiz nights, barn dances and more.
Please look around this site to find out more details about our church, our services, our people, our worship and what we get up to. And how you can get involved!
The Search tool will take you quickly to any word or phrase stored in the site - it's powered by Google and is pretty useful.
If you need to find Adel Church or find out about Adel Church, please see the FAQ section.
Even though our Rector has left during the summer of 2008 for Roby, Liverpool, we are well supported by retired and visiting clergy and all our services continue, including Junior Church.
Our key regular services are: Sundays, 0800hrs Holy Communion; 1000hrs Parish Communion with Junior Church in the Old Stables during term time - except for the third Sunday in a month when the Communion is replaced with a simpler Parish Worship service; and 1830hrs Evensong. There is a midweek service of Holy Communion on Wednesdays at 1130
Check out the Church Calendar for more detail of what's going on.

Adel Church Building Crisis |

Cracks, not bats, in the Church Tower Belfry
Adel Church is a Grade 1 national treasure and an architectural gem. Featured in every significant book on English Churches, this Norman Church built circa 1150 needs your help.
The church is essentially sound but the west wall tower is showing its age and cracks have appeared in the belfry wall. A strapping has been put in place but this is a temporary measure and professionals have advised that a more permanent solution needs to be found. The project will cost a five figure sum so every public contribution from as little as £5 is necessary and of vital importance. |
